Nice running climb, less steep and longer than the climb from the other side. Road surface looks like a well-laid cobblestone strip, very bumpy. Very nice scenery through the dunes, especially with snow. Nice view at the highest point.... read more

Nice running climb, less steep and longer than the climb from the other side. Road surface looks like a well-laid cobblestone strip, very bumpy. Very nice scenery through the dunes, especially with snow. Nice view at the highest point.

Lekker lopend klimmetje, minder steil en langer als de beklimming van de andere kant. Wegdek lijkt op een goed liggende kasseienstrook, heel hobbelig. Heel mooie omgeving door het duingebied, zeker met sneeuw. Mooi uitzicht op het hoogste punt.

This is not a climb, but a hellish stretch up in a straight line over poorly laid cobbles. This is also the challenge: how do you get over this unscathed without getting torn apart? Once the steeper part starts it immediately becomes more pleasant, as your speed drops and so you bounce less. Surroundings make up for (almost) everything.

Dit is geen klim, maar een hels stuk omhoog in rechte lijn over slecht liggende klinkers. Dat is ook meteen de uitdaging: hoe kom je hier zonder kleerscheuren overheen zonder uit elkaar gebeukt te worden? Zodra het steilere deel begint wordt het meteen aangenamer, want je snelheid daalt en dus stuiter je minder. Omgeving maakt (bijna) alles goed.
